Some Splashes Of Color...
Adding some color accents to my 1957 Royal QDL.
Green space bar came from a parts machine. And the shift key-tops, the same, but got a repaint to match the exact color of the "Royal" badge and the color of the 2 magic-margin key-lever buttons.
Krylon calls this satin-finish spray paint colour "Poppy Red"...but its more orange and less red.
The three (3) original cream/white coloured parts are in a baggie in the machine case...in case a future owner wants to go back to the original look.

Re: Some Splashes Of Color...
I was so surprised and impressed when I saw the back view.
So many machines have their back-paint all trashed out when set on their backs and drug across some old, dirty workbench.
